Editorial Review
Even adults will be challenged by attempting to fit all 25 pieces into place before the 60-second alarm sounds. These complex geometric shapes need to be matched with the appropriate hole before the whole tray pops up and sends them flying in an explosion of yellow plastic. Any number of kids can take turns trying to beat the clock, and then to beat each other's best times. For younger children who are still learning to recognize shapes, the game can be played without the time pressure. Kids will soon develop speed and accuracy so much they'll want to take on Mom and Dad. --Lynne Sampson

 Challenging April 19, 2010
Amanda L. Davis (Adrian,MI USA)
This game is actually pretty challenging because of the small size of the pieces and the short amount of time you are given. I like it because it strengthens hand-eye coordination, but I am an adult and usually can't beat this game. If you want your child to have a challenge that they won't soon outgrow, consider this game.
 Still fun February 17, 2010

I like the new color scheme and it was an instant hit with my daughter. The quality does seem to have gone down a few notches, however.
Now if I can just get that old jingle out of my head...
 Great game for visual discrimination and fast responses February 13, 2010

I bought this game for my 2 grandsons, ages 4 and 5. They LOVE this game, and everyone finds it challenging trying to beat the 4 year old who routinely gets 22-23 out of 25. (His grandparents are much slower!) My only concern is for the durability of the spring under the gameboard.
Great fun for all of us! January 9, 2010

I have a 3 year old daughter who is exceptionally good at shape sorting, so I bought this to give her a challenge. We have a great time as a family, putting all of the little shapes where they belong. My daughter is a little hesitant with the timer and the mechanism that pops at the end, but she likes it. She sometimes will request to sort the shapes without having them pop. It's a great game and we laugh all the time we play it! It does have that 'jack-in-the-box effect' on younger kids, though!
Batteries Not Needed! :) November 7, 2009
Rainbow (Southern IL United States)
I was shocked to see this required not any batteries! :)
I have gotten the travel size being strapped on cash to spend on games. I got this to enjoy with my 6 year-old, but I can have SOOOOO much fun on my own as well! I just now at 33 years young of age playing this. My child has fun with this, and gets a kick out of the pieces popping out.
You only have THIRTY seconds to complete the puzzle. Be careful, as their are two half circles and S-shapes to appropriately fit. The education comes in where and how to match the shapes, and a couple of them, sizes as well. Also teach how to make most of the time and getting as much done as possible when working on a time-limit. You know, like, when you need for your child to hurry but they don't, and when you need for them to take their time, they don't? It teaches how to work with time and being on the clock.
Other reviewers are correct in saying young children need surpervision so they don't put in their mouths the small pieces and choke as it does cause choking hazzards.
I'm not sure if I would recommend this for being on the road in a moving vehicle, just because the pieces pop out; however, it is awesome for taking it away from home since it requires little space in the suitcase, or perfect for Dr. Office visits....
